Second Summer is a brand-new music festival in Toronto’s West End — built by music people, for music people. In a time when algorithms decide what we hear, we’re bringing music discovery back to real life.

No scrolls, no hype, just great artists doing what they do best. This isn’t about chasing trends — it’s about soul, community, and putting independent talent front and centre. Because we missed this.

Because the scene needs this. And because the best music still starts small.

When: Sept. 24 - 26 

Where: Lee's Palace, The Dance Cave, The Mod Club, Sneaky Dee's, Baby G, Wavelength @ St. Anne's, The Garrison, Monarch Tavern, Collective Arts, Drake Underground, Bovine Sex Club, and Horseshoe Tavern.
